Oral surgery

Hi,
Just had some oral surgery ... both sides of my mouth ... two extractions - one upper right/one lower right ... and removal of cyst between teeth on lower left. Can't wear my Quatro full face mask ... and can't wear the Amaro that I had to use after skin cancer surgery on my nose ... luckily, I still have my NasalPillow mask, because that's the only one I will be able to wear for a little while until my mouth heals. Had a difficult time getting the nasal pillows to seal - had to tighten headgear a lot ... and then there's the air escaping out of my mouth. If I remember correctly, I stopped using the nasal pillows for 2 reasons: 1. it dried my nose out too much, even with humidifier ... to the point where I faced every morning with a slight nosebleed; and 2. I had to wear a chinstrap thing in an effort to keep my mouth closed ... not very effective. It's surprising how much air can be forced through tightly closed lips. I spent a good part of the night trying to re-seat nasal pillows when I should have been sleeping instead. I am curious about a couple of issues - Firstly, when I emptied humidifier this morning, it was almost empty ... very unusual ... at least 1/4 full with either full face mask. My second question is whether I should adjust pressure down with nasal pillows?
Please help.
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
